Spotlight on Secondary IB Information Meeting On Wednesday October 16 at 3.30pm there is an information meeting about the IB Diploma course which students follow in Years 12 and 13. Whilst this meeting is designed for Year 11 students and their parents, parents with students in any year group are very welcome to attend. The meeting will be broken into 2 parts starting with general information first. The second part of the meeting will allow students and parents to talk individually or in small groups to IB teachers. We look forward to seeing you at the meeting. Secondary Music Concert The first Secondary School Music Concert of the year is taking place on Thursday October 17 from 6.30pm. The concert will take place in the canteen so will not be effected by rainy weather. Students playing in the concert or intending to watch the concert are welcome to stay at school after classes finish. Food and drink will be on sale so students may like to bring a little spending money. Parents are very welcome to attend, even if their child is not playing in the concert. We look forward to seeing you there as our secondary students showcase their talents.
